[05:23:41] I think this is what they wants to express. [05:23:51] I meant that Korei is not a nekomata so yea [05:23:56] I see thx [05:24:01] I need to learn more about jp sentence structure [05:26:47] @koreirose Speaking of Collei, does she have a last name? (looking at your username) [05:27:03] No lol she doesn't but the history of this is funnier than that [05:27:20] My username used to be seele\_no\_last\_name and I forgot what it was before that [05:27:31] Because like [05:27:58] There was a sidequest in HSR where Seele does a job interview and she says her name is "Seele, no last name" and you can choose to note it down as Seele No-Last-Name [05:28:03] I'm curious where are you from? Taiwan? [05:28:27] So for a while I was editing the HSR wiki to say like "Seele No-Last-Name is a playable character in Honkai: Star Rail and the girlfriend of Bronya" [05:29:10] And that's how I choose seele_no_last_name for Discord [05:29:14] But at some point I thought it would be more fun to make my username collei_no_last_name [05:29:21] lmao is this your vandalism that you were talking about?

I think putting your skills out there is great, but do it on your own wiki. This only leads to others getting an idea of ... hey that's fun, apparently one can do that, so .. so can I. And they start to do stuff in a not so good way and break things up. [11:10:04] [2/2] So again, from my personal view, I would like you not to do that. And that goes for everyone imo. [11:39:03] I would second this. As much as we can dislike the Fandom staff, that doesn't make vandalism (or bragging about it) okay imho. [12:30:46] Yeah, and personally, this is just adding fuel to the fire. It's always best to separate the actions/decisions of Fandom from the wikis in Fandom. [12:36:22] Vandalism and spam in general, regardless of the page or where it is hosted, is just foolish. It's understandable to dislike the subject of a page, to dislike a specific wiki if it is in a bad state, or to dislike a platform for their drawbacks. What's not justified is to do vandalism or spam attacks in general, since it's a waste of time for everyone involved. [12:46:35] I can also say that whatever disagreements you have with someone or even an entire farm there's no justification for vandalism or spam. If you believe that you can keep it to yourself but I don't think this server is a space where people should brag or condone such disruption [17:19:31] [1/2] Late to this discussion, but as a point of human psychology: if you go to a place you don't like and vandalize it, telling folks to join the place you do like, they will gain a bad opinion of the place you do like and are less likely to move there. [17:19:31] [2/2] Be a positive presence if you want folks to take your arguments seriously. [17:23:01] In other news [17:23:06] Fandom just nuked their Wiki Managers [17:23:11] saw that coming a mile away [17:25:27] … was this a new programme or was it around before October last year? [17:26:04] its been around for years since Fandom acquired Gamepedia [17:30:09] yeah [17:38:21] what was the wiki managers programme?
